king derelict Posted September 4, 2023 Author Share #241 Posted September 4, 2023 I've made an initial sanding of the outer tower walls and completed the curved tower after much grumbling. Its a bit messy but it will clean up although its going to be very frustrating to sand down between the pillars and windows. I then discovered a mistake with the curved tower. Somehow I had let the template creep out of position while the glue was setting and didn't notice it until I came to start the walls around it. You can see the section of green at bottom right showing where the wall should go. And with the next level in place there is a nasty gap. So I dismantled the upper part of the wall on the right, cut some card to shape and glued it into place after filing the right side wall to a steeper angle where it meets the pillar. That allowed me to rotate the pillars a bit and the wall will curve more. I rebuilt the wall and it seems to have done the job. I plan to add another piece of card under the upper part of the tower which is just resting in place at present. That will be large enough to sit on the walls and should help stopping any light bleed I did a quick check and all lights are still functioning. I started on the upper works and am now down to the last bag of blocks. I think I will make it but its amazing how many blocks disappear from the tray when you lay one of the longer walls. Now I am encountering some conundrums with the upper details and the plan (general guide) is no real help If you look through the arch into a courtyard marked C there are arrows on the surrounding walls showing where piece "C" is fitted. This lines it up with the sill of the arch that leads from the courtyard into "B" Thats fine except that then leaves the raised floor halfway up the initial archway. I'm not sure what the optimum solution is. Maybe cut back the floor and build a set of stairs running up to the raided floor. There is another curiosity. The templates seem to suggest that interior walls are not built . Instead a series of piers three blocks high are built at intervals along the walls. That might hold the floor - except its too small Piece "C" is one blocks width too small for the space so will fall within the piers - or even an interior wall. The same is true for courtyard "B": I think I will make some new templates that are wider and build interior walls for them to rest on. The guide doesn't have any useful views on the subject. It looks like we have reached the interesting part of the build. I'll see if there are any detail photos of the real thing that might be enlightening. Otherwie its time to get that artistic license out and read the fine print!

Old Collingwood Posted September 5, 2023 Share #243 Posted September 5, 2023 How are the floors meant to be - small stones like shingle, you could build up around the walls to make up the right width to match the card shapes, and where you need to make a false floor higher - you could add another layer of bricks to the height you need, that would support the raised floors (I would make your floors with shingle material before fitting them so they have some strength) I also agree about the need for a few colums to support the middle areas.

king derelict Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share #246 Posted September 15, 2023 Time to rescue this from the bottom of the page. Actually I've been getting a fair bit of work done during the week but I'm conscious that progress isn't too apparent if I update at frequent intervals The problem with the elevated courtyard and the arch sort of resolved itself. I put some matte black paint immediately inside the enclosed area to make it harder to see what is in there and added the floors to the areas B and C The floor rests on the lip of the inside walls. I decided that I didn't like the arch on the inner wall of courtyard B so I ripped it out and then continued building the walls up from the new floor level. This created a step down beyond the arch. I quite like it. With the black floor it has a sense of descending into a passage leading down into the castle. After that I continued building up the walls and came up to the next area that requires a bit of thought. The towers and their embrasures. The templates have very small crenellations which don't look at all sensible with the figures - they are barely waist high. This is an area where the scale is a bit of an issue - the blocks are really too big to make decent crenellations. I'm still pondering on the final answer to this but in the meantime the tower walls were finish and I paved the roof Then added two additional tiers of blocks (another concern if the Loarre Castle wardens ever come to Hobe Sound for their holidays) The same was done with the smaller (Queens) tower. I'm working on the adjacent structures now with a couple more roofs added. The several walls that start in various places and join to other structures is an area of the build that needs attention because the uneven sizes of the blocks and the sanding along with my inexactitudes can result in the inner and outer walls being unequal heights or the tiers on one side of the tower being a different height to the other side. Generally it has come out alright so far with a judicious bit of sanding here and there. So progress to date This is the total reserve of blocks - I am not sure whether I am going to make it - its going to be close. There are still several double walls to complete and those long structures at the top of the last photo are going to use a lot of blocks I risked $25 on Amazon for this micro engraving tool with a bunch of bits thinking it might be good for getting into all the areas difficult to reach to clean them up. Opening out the windows might also be easy with it. I think a delicate touch will be needed. It looks nice little tool. USB chargeable so very handy. Its even got stencils of teddy bears It comes with a micro saw blade; I'm wondering if that could be used to saw up blocks cleanly enough to solve the crenellation issue. Regardless there are hours of serious clean up needed once the structures are completed.

king derelict Posted September 23, 2023 Author Share #254 Posted September 23, 2023 Progress has continued through the week with most of the upper structures completed. Its beginning to feel like the last lap. I came across another Aedes Ars discontinuity. The arched gateway in the lower right is too close to the wall of the structure and is partially blocked by the wall. The guide is of no help. I checked the templates and everything is where its supposed to be. My solution is to chamfer the wall as it meets the arch and fair it into the archway. I'll round it off a little and I think it will look acceptable. The windows still need to be opened out too and cleaned up a little I'm working on the last bits of structure now The remaining blocks are diminishing but I'm hopeful I might just make it The last challenge will be the last tower and the roofs on the adjacent buildings There is going to be some very intricate block and tile work here and I think there is going to be some potential for light leakage. I ordered some black caulk to sit the roof templates on and I may add some cardboard to the templates to ensure there are no gaps.

king derelict Posted September 26, 2023 Author Share #261 Posted September 26, 2023 I'm adding blocks in the last sections of open structure. Just the last section with the arch and windows to complete. Then its onto the octagon tower and the roofs. the octagon tower is going to be challenging to build up. Lots of shapes to sand. I added the templates for the roofs sitting them on black caulk to try to eliminate any light bleed. That looks fairly successful although I got in the usual filthy mess when I use caulk. Doesn't matter whether its the kitchen sink or something more delicate; I manage to get it smeared everywhere. Luckily it doesn't seem to have got anywhere that will be visible once the roof tiles are in place. The stock of blocks is almost gone. I think I will make the open structure but I don't think there is enough to build the tower. I found my stash of spare blocks from previous Aedes Ars kits and I think I'm in good shape if I use them. There may be a bit of a pause in the build now. Tomorrow I am off to New Bern NC for eye surgery. I'm hoping to be home on Sunday night but I don't know how long the recovery is going to take and the quality of eyesight while that's happening. If all goes to plan it could be a couple of weeks. Hopefully there are some long-term gains to be had.
